Begin by chopping the dried apricots into small, even pieces and set aside.
Finely chop the onion and grate the fresh ginger. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped apricots, apple cider vinegar, erythritol sweetener, and water. Stir well to dissolve the sweetener slightly.
Add the chopped onion, grated ginger, minced garlic, mustard seeds, ground cumin, ground coriander, chili flakes, and salt to the saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and turns into a chutney-like consistency.
Stir occasionally during simmering to prevent sticking, and adjust the heat as necessary if it starts to stick to the bottom.
Once thickened, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Allow the chutney to cool slightly before transferring to sterilized jars for storage.
Store in the refrigerator and use within 2 weeks. Serve chilled or at room temperature with your favorite dishes.
